Description

Realize the system and method for multicast service
Technical field
The present invention relates to network communications technology field, relate in particular to a kind of technology that realizes multicast service.
Background technology
Along with the fast development of the communication technology,, proposed to utilize multicasting technology to carry out the communication mode of professional transmission for alleviating the bandwidth pressure of transmission network.Described multicasting technology is meant that the sender sends the identical services content to a plurality of recipients simultaneously.Like this, because identical content only need send a getting final product to the multicast address of appointment, thereby can effectively reduce the load of professional transmit leg and transmission network, and can effectively utilize Internet resources.IPTV the carrying out of multimedia service such as (internet televisions) that appear as of described multicasting technology provides the transmission of quickness and high efficiency implementation.
In the developing multicast business procedure, in order to obtain corresponding multicast content, user as the multicast content recipient need require the router of adjacency to send the corresponding business content to local terminal by the mode that adds professional multicast group, for example, specifically can adopt IGMP (Internet Group Management Protocol) or MLD (multicast listener discovery) to add corresponding multicast group.The router of developing multicast business also needs by multicast routing protocols such as PIM-SM (sparse mode standalone protocol multicast) agreement and other router alternately to set up multicast forwarding path.Like this, need the multicast service content of transmission just can pass to the multicast content recipient from multicast source along multicast forwarding path.
IGMP or MLD agreement are two important protocol that can adopt in the developing multicast business procedure, and this agreement is the part of IP, and it operates between main frame and the router, is used to realize multicast member management and discovery.Described IGMP or MLD agreement allow to inform mutually between router and the main frame state message etc. that the operation of relevant multicast transmission requires and exchanges multicast transmission information, and for example, main frame dynamically adds or withdraws from multicast group; Simultaneously, IGMP also needs the member's changing condition by multicast group on the Routing Protocol advertised network, so that upgrade corresponding multicast routing iinformation.
The function that IGMP or MLD agreement realize comprises:
(1) main frame is by IGMP or its information of wishing adding and receiving certain particular multicast group of MLD notice of settlement local router;
(2) whether the router member that periodically inquires about certain known multicast group in the local area network (LAN) by IGMP or MLD agreement is in active state, promptly whether this network segment still exists the member who belongs to certain multicast group, that is to say, whether need to write down certain multicast group in router has the information of multicast member in this locality, with collection and the maintenance that realizes that institute's network multicast member that network concerns, thereby be convenient to issuing of information Control multicast service content that route-map writes down.
In the developing multicast business procedure, user in multicast service is in order to obtain multicast content, it must be by initiatively adding professional multicast group as the content recipient user, after the multicast bear network receives request, by the route that writes down in the routing protocol update router, and set up and safeguard dynamic forward-path, facilitate the use described forward-path and realize multicast service.
Divide based on the agreement that adopts in the developing multicast business procedure, mainly comprise two processing procedures at the management of multicast service, what at first need to carry out is the management process of service application layer, and what need afterwards to carry out is multicast transportation protocol layer-management process, wherein:
The management process of described service application layer mainly is meant the service management reciprocal process between user and the service application service device, for example, initiation of services request, professional termination request, professional Keep Alive (keep-alive) processing etc., the management process of service application layer adopts application layer protocol to carry out information interaction usually, as HTTP (HTML (Hypertext Markup Language)), SIP (session initiation protocol), RSTP (flow host-host protocol) or RDP (RDP) etc.;
Described multicast transportation protocol layer-management process is meant the process that main frame or terminal and the router that closes on are informed mutually, when the request beginning is professional, main frame or terminal need be notified and close on router adding multicast group, router is set up the multicast member relation table according to adding message, upgrades multicast forward table simultaneously.When request stops professional the time, main frame or terminal need be notified and close on router and leave multicast group, and router upgrades multicast forward table simultaneously according to the multicast member relation table of leave group message deletion appointment, stops multicast data flow and is forwarded to this main frame or terminal.
Divide based on the concrete processing of adopting in the developing multicast business procedure, mainly comprise two basic process, promptly multicast service is opened processing procedure and multicast service termination process.And, in described two basic process, can realize the management process of corresponding business application layer, but the corresponding multicast transportation protocol layer-management process of essential realization.
At first to the multicast service processing procedure of opening an account, promptly the processing procedure of user applies multicast service describes below, and as shown in Figure 1, existing multicast service application process specifically comprises following treatment step:
Step 11: the user is to service application service device application designated multicast business;
Step 12: after application server is handled user's application, confirm user's application request;
Step 13: after the user receives the Requisition Validation of application server, initiate the multicast group that IGMP JOIN (IGMP adding) message request adds appointment;
Step 14: after connection user's AN (access node) receives described request, continue to send the described message that joins request;
Be specially, AN asks by the IGMP JOIN that IGMP PROXY (igmp proxy) or IGMP SNOOPING (IGMP snooping) function receive the user, and afterwards, the multicast member of process user joins request, and, upgrade the multicast member relation table handling successfully back configuration multicast forwarding path; If the multicast group of user's request is not introduced at AN, promptly this user is the user who adds this multicast first under the AN, and then AN continuation forwarding user's multicast member joins request.
Step 15: described user's multicast member joins request to be handled step by step and is sent to IP EDGE (IP edge), be after IP EDGE receives that IGMP JOIN adds the request of designated multicast group, the configuration multicast forwarding path upgrades the multicast member relation table, continues to transmit this request;
Step 16: the user multicast group membership joins request and is transmitted step by step, arrives multicast source at last, i.e. application server, and multicast begins to send the multicast data flow data.
Again to multicast service termination process, promptly corresponding user asks to stop the multicast service process and describes below, and as shown in Figure 2, existing multicast service termination procedure specifically comprises following treatment step:
Step 21: the user stops the designated multicast service request to the service application service device;
Step 22: after application server is handled user's termination request, confirm user's request;
Step 23: the user initiates multicast member and leaves request;
After step 24:AN received broadcasting the group membership and leaving request of user, AN deleted multicast forwarding path, upgrades the multicast member relation table simultaneously, if this multicast group is last member of AN, continued the forwarding multicasting group membership and left request.
Step 25: user's multicast member leaves request and is handled step by step and be sent to IP EDGE, IPEDGE adopt with AN in identical treatment principle handle this request, with the termination of realization at this user's multicast service.
The processing procedure of the developing multicast business that is provided by above-mentioned prior art is not difficult to find out that there is following shortcoming in corresponding multicast service processing procedure:
1, need two consultative management processes in the developing multicast business procedure, one is service application layer, and another is the agreement of multicast network, and the two effective combination of being unrealized causes at the management of real network comparatively difficult;
Promptly in the developing multicast business procedure, the corresponding multicast protocol management process of essential realization between main frame or terminal and service provider network, but because the management process of application layer is transparent for network layer, multicast transportation protocol management process then is to operate in network layer, thereby cause two management processes finely not combine, but promptly be difficult to provide runing and regulatory requirement of telecommunications;
2, internet group management protocols such as existing IGMP and MLD are the agreement that safety assurance can't be provided, thereby, there is bigger security of multicast hidden danger;
For example, multicast group member management protocols such as existing IGMP and MLD do not ask to confirm the interaction mechanism (asking to add the just not corresponding affirmation response mechanism of process of multicast group as the user) of formula, this just makes at the user's of request adding authentication comparatively difficult, be unfavorable for the user who carries out multicast service is realized management, thereby, make to be difficult to provide favorable user experience for the multicast user.

For ease of the understanding of the present invention, to the multicast member provided by the invention management that joins request, the specific implementation that multicast member leaves the processing procedure of request management and multicast member condition managing is elaborated below in conjunction with accompanying drawing.
The specific implementation flow process of multicast service application processing procedure provided by the invention specifically comprises following treatment step as shown in Figure 4:
Step 41:UE (user) begins to ask Service-Start-Req message by network to ALGSS transmission business, so that to the multicast service of network side application appointment;
In this step, what specifically adopt is the application layer protocol with request response mechanism, for example, adopts SIP or application layer protocols such as HTTP or RDP or RSTP;
After step 42:ALGSS receives user's multicast service application, initiate operations such as authentication, authentication, for example, authentication operations etc. is carried out in this user's business application at this user;
Be specially, after ALGSS receives described Service-Start-Req message, handle this user's multicast service application, promptly at first this locality is carried out in the business application and handle, manage control etc. such as message congestion, afterwards according to local collocation strategy, the business application is carried out processing such as remote authentication according to configured strategy, carry out remote authentication and handle and to select Verification System according to practical strategies, for example, choose the SSDM Verification System and authenticate or authenticate to the AS Verification System;
After step 43:ALGSS passed through business application processing, after authenticating by corresponding authentication, ALGSS notice MCMSS handled multicast and joins request;
For example, ALGSS can send request to MCMSS and add multicast group IGMP Group Join message, with request corresponding user is added corresponding multicast group;
Need to prove that in step 42 and step 43, the processing protocol that adopts as ALGSS and AS or SSDM then also needs to carry out the corresponding protocol conversion process not simultaneously on ALGSS, afterwards, the message after will changing again sends to AS or SSDM;
After step 44:MCMSS receives the adding multicast group request of ALGSS, obtain and handle the positional information of relative users;
In this step, MCMSS obtains the professional positional information method of application can be a variety of, for example, can obtain by local configuration mode, also can obtain by communicating by letter with NASS, and be to obtain the professional user position information of application in Fig. 4 by NASS;
After step 45:MCMSS gets access to user position information, carry out the configuration process of multicast path in the bearer network;
Specifically be according to MCMSS network topology, multicast member relation table; carry out the calculating and the corresponding operation of multicast path; as CAC (connect and admit control), backup or protection path processing etc.; then; the distribution channel for distribution of configuration multicast network, the distribution channel for distribution of described multicast network comprises the multicast forward table of multicast bear network element, after configuration is finished; upgrade the multicast member relation table, be about to the user and join in the corresponding multicast group.
On MCMSS, need record network topology and multicast member relation table, MCMSS network topology source method has a variety of, as obtaining manual configuration etc. by GMPLS LMP (LMP Link Manager Protocol) agreement; Described group membership's relation table is that MCMSS is according to network topology oneself management and generation; The computational methods of multicast path wherein also are a variety of, as calculating by the GMPLS agreement.
After step 46:MCMSS handled multicast and joins request, MCMSS added to ALGSS response multicast group and confirms, confirmed that content comprises but do not limit to operating result, multicast member number etc.
After step 47:ALGSS receives the MCMSS response confirmation, to UE response Requisition Validation.If apply for successfully, start professional keep Alive mechanism simultaneously.
Step 48:ALGSS is according to local policy and multicast member number, and is optional to AS transmission service dispense application request.This goes on foot nonessential step, is optional.
The specific implementation flow process of multicast service termination process provided by the invention specifically comprises following treatment step as shown in Figure 5:
Step 51:UE sends the professional request Service-Termination-Req message that stops, and described message will be through forwarded to ALGSS, to stop the multicast service of appointment;
Concrete employing is the application layer protocol with request response mechanism in this step, for example, can adopt SIP or application layer protocols such as HTTP or RDP or RSTP;
After step 52:ALGSS receives user's termination multicast service request, the termination service request of process user, carry out verification etc. as legitimacy to the user, ALGSS response confirmation user's termination service request, the local policy according to configuration stops service announcement to AS and/or transmission simultaneously;
Step 53:ALGSS notice MCMSS deletes corresponding multicast group;
Need to prove that in step 52 and step 53, when ALGSS is different with the processing protocol that AS or SSDM adopt, then also need to carry out the corresponding protocol conversion process on ALGSS, afterwards, the message after will changing again sends to AS or SSDM;
After step 54:MCMSS receives that ALGSS deletes the notice of corresponding multicast group, according to the corresponding multicast forwarding passage of multicast member relation deletion, discharge corresponding resource, upgrade the multicast member relation simultaneously, be about to relative users and from the multicast group of correspondence, delete.
In addition; whether understand terminal equipment in real time for ease of network side online; so that network side carries out operational processes such as corresponding multicast service management, accounting management; the present invention also provides the machine-processed processing procedure of Keep Alive (keep-alive) at multicast service; the specific implementation flow process of respective handling process specifically comprises following treatment step as shown in Figure 6:
Step 61:ALGSS service condition is property inquiry timer expiry periodically, and ALGSS sends the service condition query requests to the user, opens service condition inquiry waiting timer simultaneously, closes periodically property inquiry timer of service condition;
To be ALGSS send blanking time of service condition query requests to the user to the timing length of described inquiry timer, and whether the service condition inquiry request message by timed sending can detect the user online, thereby the user's online situation is monitored;
The timing length of described inquiry waiting timer is that ALGSS carries out the needed time of user's online condition monitoring process, promptly sends the maximum duration of waiting for the service condition report of returning after the described service condition query requests;
Step 62:UE receives the service condition query requests, if corresponding multicast service is still online, after UE response service status report then, ALGSS are received the service condition report that UE sends, close service condition inquiry waiting timer, and open periodically property inquiry timer of service condition;
Step 63: when ALGSS service condition periodicity property inquiry timer is overtime once more, ALGSS will send the service condition query requests to the user, open service condition inquiry waiting timer simultaneously, close periodically property inquiry timer of service condition, corresponding processing procedure is with step 61;
